Author Topic: CP500 Custom Format Builder Hannes Ziegenhorn Film Handler Posts: 10 From: Großbreitenbach, Thüringen, Germany Registered: Jan 2017 posted 07-19-2019 05:14 AM                     Hey With the Dolby CP500 one has the possibility to create User Formats and configute them with many options. But in the Installation manual there is no information about all the available options. It only mentions that there is a Custom Format Builder. Is there a separate manual or bulletin on that topic? Thanks Hannes  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 07-19-2019 07:11 AM                     I don't think so. The process is not daunting though. It's been years since I did it but recall it as fairly self explanatory. We usually would set up a second nonsync with matrix decoding on CP500s.  |  IP: Logged Gary A. Hoselton Film Handler Posts: 59 From: Portland OR U.S.A.

FORMAT 42: 4 track mag with Dolby A-type for "Yentl". He had Installatiion and Alignment manual open, but just went at the buttons clickety-click. All came up fine.  |  IP: Logged
